Adam Silver & the #1 pick in the 2018 #NBA2KLeague Draft, Dimez! https://t.co/Vpfu59svSo

Naturally, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski got the scoop for the first pick, just like he does for the NBA draft:

Adrian Wojnarowski @wojespn
Mavs Gaming will select Artreyo Boyd, aka Dimez, as the No. 1 overall pick in the inaugural NBA2K Draft, league source tells ESPN. Draft starts soon, with Commissioner Adam Silver at the podium.

No one can ever say Wojnarowski isn't amazing at his job and fully dedicated to making sure everyone gets all of the information he is privy to.

Speaking about the league before the draft began, Silver noted he liked the potential to bring new athletes into the NBA.

"What's so exciting today is we'll be welcoming a new generation of athletes, of NBA players, into this league," he said, via USA Today's Charles Curtis. "That sense of renewal, that sort of sense of the birthing of the whole process is what makes us excited."

Per ESPN's Darren Rovell, Silver noted at the start of the draft that the NBA is treating the 2K League as its fourth league, which also includes the WNBA and G League.

A total of 17 NBA teams are participating in the esports league and qualifying took place in January, with players needing to win 50 games in NBA 2K18's Pro-Am mode featuring five-on-five matches involving custom-made characters.

The season will take place over the course of three months from May through August with a total prize payout of $1 million, including $35,000 for first-round draft picks.
